Secure USB-A to Micro-B Cable

This USB-A to Micro-B data blocker cable creates a power-only connection for charging smartphones, tablets, headphones and cameras. It physically removes the data pins from the USB-A connector to prevent data theft, corruption and malware transfer between the device and the host system. The 1 metre length suits pocket or bag carry for travel and public charging stations.

Physical Data Blocking Design

The USB-A connector has no data pins, providing a hardware barrier that stops all data transmission while allowing up to 5 V / 2.4 A / 12 W charging. This passive cable works with any standard USB-A port on computers, wall chargers or public power points without requiring software or drivers. It meets the needs of corporate, defence, government and education environments where data leakage must be eliminated.

Passive Operation and Durable Build

With no active electronics the cable draws no extra power and generates no heat during charging sessions. Nickel-plated connectors and a stranded copper conductor inside a TPE jacket resist wear from daily insertion cycles. The charge-only design keeps operation silent and cool whether used at a desk, in a vehicle or at an airport charging kiosk.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.4 A rating mean when I plug this into a laptop USB port?

The cable supports up to 2.4 A at 5 V, so a compliant laptop port can deliver 12 W for fast charging, but the actual current depends on the port's own limit.

How does the USB 2.0 interface affect charging speed with this blocker?

The USB 2.0 connector has no data pins fitted, so the link is power-only; the 2.4 A ceiling comes from the USB Battery Charging spec, not from USB 2.0 bandwidth.

Will the 3.28 ft length and Micro-B plug fit my phone in a thick case?

The cable is 3.28 ft (1 m) long with a standard Micro-B male connector; clearance depends on the case cut-out, not on the cable itself.
